HC Deb 18 January 1967 vol 739 c87W
Mr. Alfred Morris

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what further initiatives have been taken by Her Majesty's Government to conciliate the conflict in Vietnam; what reactions there have been to these initiatives; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. George Brown

I would refer my hon. Friend to my statement on Vietnam today.

Mr. James Davidson

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs what information he has now been given by Great Britain's fellow-members of the South-East Asia Treaty Organisation, Thailand and the United States of America, regarding the use of air bases in Thailand for air operations against North Vietnam.

Mr. George Brown

None. The only airfield on which I have official information is that at Loeng Nok Tha in North East Thailand which Her Majesty's Government have built as a gift for the Thai Government. As I told the hon. Member this afternoon, this airfield is not being used for bombing operations against North Vietnam.
